Thomas Schrage, from Bethel, Ohio, kept alive his slim hopes of winning the USF2000 Presented by Continental Tire championship with a hard-fought victory this evening for VRD Racing in the first of three races that will comprise the Continental Tire Grand Prix of Portland.

Another exciting USF Pro Championships Presented by Continental Tire season will reach its conclusion this week, August 8-10, at Portland International Raceway. The 1.964-mile road course situated just a few miles from downtown Portland, Ore., will feature races for all three levels of the highly acclaimed open-wheel driver development ladder, in addition to INDY NXT and the NTT INDYCAR SERIES.

This marks the beginning of an exciting journey for our team as we enter the USF Pro Championships ladder with brand-new equipment, top-level engineering and a winning mindset.
